Chapter 269 You Hit on Me First

Ryan twitched his mouth and mumbled, “It turns out you brought me dinner. So, why didn’t you tell me sooner, Wayne? Geez!”

With that, Ryan turned around and noticed a few dishes and a bowl of pasta on the table. Then, he was touched right away.

It was getting darker and darker. The dark blue velvet night sky blended with the bustling Birmingham city, making the lights look as bright as the stars.

As Anna stepped out of the bathroom, she noticed a man standing in her room.

She then stopped and then thought to herself. Damn! Why did | forget to lock the door?

Anna was exhausted from her long day. She’d been through too much and had thought about too many things. So, as soon as she walked into the bedroom, she went straight to the shower, forgetting to lock the door.

Alarmed, Anna said, “Wayne! What are you doing in here?”

Wayne was sitting on the sofa on the balcony at the time, holding a book called A Brief History of Time . t was the book Anna usually read before going to bed.

He looked up, put the book down, and said, “This is a fantastic book. Anna, you have excellent taste.” “No, it is not what you think it is. Every time | read this book, | fall asleep very quickly. In a way, it’s my sleeping pills” Anna responded. She then folded her arms and turned to face Wayne.

She added, “Come on, | think you should go to Ryan’s bedroom instead of checking what I’m reading before | go to bed. Otherwise, you’ll have to sleep in Matthew’s bed again.”

“But | haven’t showered yet,” Wayne said, raising an eyebrow.

“Then go take a shower. There’s a bathroom in the living room.”

“But the shower in that bathroom is not working.”

Hearing that, Anna looked at him and said, “What? That’s not possible!”

Wayne didn’t continue to defend himself but just stood up and said, “Fine. If you don’t believe me, you can check it out.”

Anna said, “OK, I’ll go see it now.”

Actually, Anna didn’t believe that the shower was broken atall.

Ryan had stayed at her place for a long time and always used the bathroom there. Anna would occasionally shower there too, but the shower had never been broken.

After checking the shower, she found out that Wayne was right.

Wayne approached her from behind and said, “Look! | didn’t lie to you, did 1?”

Anna felt helpless in the face of the situation. She had to turn off the shower and place it on the shelf, saying, “Well, you can take a shower in my bedroom. But | hope you could leave

my room as soon as possible when you finish taking a shower. By the way, can you please call someone to fix it if you’re home tomorrow?”

“OK,” Wayne said immediately.
